Ready to see if Drop-Off Training is the right fit for your dog? This assessment is the first step. Your trainer will evaluate your dog’s behavior, comfort level, and learning style to determine whether they’re ready to join the program or would benefit from an additional acclimation visit first.

Your dog will receive one-on-one attention while being assessed in a crate and in the training space. The goal of this visit is evaluation and confidence-building, so interaction with other dogs may not occur.

This program is perfect for busy pet parents! You drop your pup off at Ruff Life and our expert trainers teach them new skills, progress current skills in new environments or with new distractions, and brush up on past skills. We offer six different tracks for enrollment: Basic Obedience, House Manners, Public Manners, Dog Play Skills, Collaborative Care, or “Do More With Your Dog.” Every training appointment (regardless which track you choose) includes social time with another dog or in a small play group. During these group sessions, trainers target appropriate dog-to-dog communication and behavior, as well as individual goals. Dogs are kenneled between training sessions and must be crate trained to attend this program. Each six week course includes a complimentary, 30 minute private appointment to review progress and provide hands-on training support to owners. 

Schedule:
12:30-1:30 pm: Mid-day pick up/drop off
5:00-6:00 pm: Afternoon pick up

Due to limited physical capacity and to ensure each dog receives ample training time, we ask that you please adhere to this schedule.
